Starting the Spring 2010, student rosters will be uploaded directly from our school Student Information System to the Moodle Course System

New to Moodle:

If you are new to moodle you will login to the moodle course system at http://moodle.lamission.edu and then you will click on your online

class. It will ask for your Username and Passcode

Your Username = your student ID number 88-xxx-xxxx

Your Passcode = your month and day of birth (eg. Feb. 5th = 0205)

Existing Moodle Users:

You no longer will use your moodle account username and passcode that you set up and used in moodle classes before Spring 2010.

Instead you will use the new system.

Your Username = your student ID number 88-xxx-xxxx

Your Passcode = your month and day of birth (eg. Feb. 5th = 0205)

If you cannot login to moodle, contact the help desk at 818-415-2015 or email onlinemission@gmail.com
